Overview

"Ronit Gilad, MD, serves as chair of neurosurgery at Staten Island University Hospital (SIUH), assistant professor of neurosurgery at Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell, member of the Katz Institute of Women's Health, and member of the American Association of Neurological Surgeons and the Congress of Neurological Surgeons.

Dr. Gilad has a surgical focus in treating patients with brain and skull base tumors, including meningioma and pituitary masses. She also has special interests in spine surgery and motion preservation in people with degenerative disc conditions and spinal stenosis.

She specializes in minimally invasive procedures, including tubular retractation system surgery for deep brain tumors, which involves making a single a small incision in the skull and inserting a narrow tube-like surgical tool through delicate healthy brain tissue to remove the tumor. Tubular retraction can also be used to remove spinal tumors. To improve the accuracy of surgery, Dr. Gilad routinely uses state-of-the-art equipment such as the exoscope, which projects high-definition, three-dimensional images onto a large screen in the operating room.

While she has extensive training and experience as a surgeon and loves the hands-on approach to care that surgery provides, she also helps patients explore non-surgical treatment options, including medication and radiation therapy. ""There is no one formula. I take patient preferences into consideration and think outside the box to make sure people's needs are met."".

Dr. Gilad is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in Microdiscectomy. Her top areas of expertise are Hydrocephalus, Cervical Spondylosis, Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus, Vertebroplasty, and Bone Graft.

Her clinical research consists of co-authoring 4 peer reviewed articles. MediFind looks at clinical research from the past 15 years.
